【保存版】瀬戸芸 春会期 完全ガイド | 瀬戸内国際芸術祭２０２５

Touring contemporary art around the world. We are traveling around contemporary art around the world. This time, we will be going to the Setouchi Triennale at Haruka Station. Good morning. Today, we start from Takamatsu Station in Kagawa Prefecture. This time, we will participate in the Setouchi Triennale, which opened the other day. The Setouchi Triennale is an international contemporary art festival held on the islands of the Setouchi Association, and this is the sixth time it has been held. A pass is required to view the artworks, and Pole Season Passports and passports for each event are also available. Today, I am going to Kojima, so I will take the 1:02 ferry bound for Kojimadono Sho. This time, I bought a ticket that allows unlimited ferry rides for three days. The ticket unit costs 2,600 yen and can be purchased from the official app . There are so many eligible routes, so it is a very good deal for those who want to visit the artworks on the island . Udon is a specialty of Kagawa Prefecture, and in 2018, Pokemon’s Yadon was chosen by the Udon Sword PR team because it sounds similar to udon . Even so, this ferry is full of Yadon and is so cute. The ferry has an observation deck, so you can enjoy the view of the Setouchi Kai. We arrived at Tonoshogakko after about an hour’s ferry ride from Takamatsu Port . Today, we will mainly tour the western area of the island. And since the weather looks bad all day today, I think I’ll use the pass to tour around. This ticket can also be purchased from the official app. I came to a nearby bus stop, which is proof of this. All six routes that run through the eastern part of the island, as well as the Setouchi Game Bus West Route and East Route. All of these are unlimited rides. First, we can head to Tonosho Honcho. If the weather is good, it is recommended to go by bicycle. We arrived at Shohoncho, which is a 5-minute bus ride away. We went to see my favorite works in the maze town. The maze town is home to the Yokai Art Museum, which has more than 800 monsters from all over the world . As we got lost in the maze town, we came into view the works. This is the first time in three years that Setouchi Game has been exhibited by the Japanese contemporary art activity team, and it is a space where time and place change. We salvaged a single house in the maze town. We extended the white exterior walls into the building to create a passageway with an aerobic shape like a cave . In the white space, some things remain as they are, such as the pillars of the house, the bathtub, and the windows , and you can experience a different space that makes you feel nostalgic. By the way, it seems to be bigger than when I came here three years ago. It seems that they have added more. The next work is also nearby, so I walk there. We have arrived. It seems that the work is located behind a soy sauce company near the former Tono Small Office. Nagasawa is Nobu’s sea vessel. It is a work that expresses reverse motion qualitatively with a boat woven with optical fiber. If you listen carefully , you can hear the sound of waves. You can lie down on this boat, and when you lie down, it feels like the light that changes like a slow pulse and the heartbeat are one. I returned to the bus stop where I got off earlier. There was a bus at just the right time to go to see the works in the Ilsan Nakayama area. As I was heading towards the mountain, something eye-catching suddenly appeared. I got off the bus and walked towards the blue flag. It was quite large even from this distance. I gradually walked through the idyllic scenery of the fields. Since the mountain is close, there is a fence to prevent overload. It’s not a road closure, so if you open it, close it properly and go through. A road made of bamboo appeared. This work is Wang Wenqi’s Baoyong Earth Island. The artist Wang Benqi said that when he visited the island for the first time in three years, he felt like the island was embracing him with both hands, and created this work with the hope that people from all over the world would be able to reach the island. Wow, it’s amazing. Look at this view of the island. It’s all made of bamboo. It was raining heavily today, but on a sunny day, the sunlight shining through the gaps in the bamboo is absolutely beautiful, so I would like to see it. It’s slippery on rainy days, so I’m careful as I go down . No, I can’t believe that a work like this can be made with just one bamboo. It was overwhelming. There was a sign for the next work beyond the exit. I walked straight for about 10 minutes. This Comica seems to be the venue for the work. I walked towards the sound and found it. This is the work of Oka Makoto and the Musical Water Project. There used to be a lot of water here in Zhongshan, and the artist’s hometown used waterwheels to make wind and water. The waterwheel is no longer there, but in the Akibe stage where the Suguha lived, they created a musical piece using tools and farm implements used in the mining and life. Here, you can actually play on instruments made from farm tools. We walked to the next piece. There were many signs, so it seems that we won’t get lost . We came out of the mountains and into the town. We were about 2km from Wang Wen-chi’s bamboo piece. We’re almost there. We’ve arrived. It seems that the piece is in this warehouse in Nongjing. It’s Toyofuku’s boat that disappeared into the yellow sea, which we enjoyed at last year’s Echigo Art Festival. Of course, you can see the piece for free if you have a passport, but if you pay 500 yen, you can see and touch the boat. Of course, you will be charged. I don’t think you’ll be able to paint much, but you can borrow a book. Please give me as much as you can. Then, you can push the kajitori against the wall. You will hang and pull it. And in that case, please actually touch the piece. Thank you. Have a nice day. Oh, it’s true. There are a lot of them. I tried to board a boat on the wall, which was covered with gold-colored items, coins, and shells such as persimmons. The experience added to the work made it quite an impressive piece. I headed to Ikeda from the Tokibashi bus stop, which is very close to Higashifukui’s work. This time, I got on the Seto Game Bus for the first time. I arrived at the Ikeda school. From here, I changed buses to go see the works on the Mito Peninsula. The bus driver this time was very hospitable, and even though it was a local bus, he stopped at the works on the way and let me take photos. There were some works that I had given up on, such as this Daidara Ultra Stick, so I am really grateful that I was able to see them. I can’t get back to the port by 5 o’clock unless I see the works around here, which takes about 30 minutes at the end of the Mito West Line . I have to hurry, or I’ll be able to get to Daisuke Omi’s work, Yadokari. The sculpture of the Yadokari, about 2m tall, that has taken up residence in Akiya, is made of camphor wood. It is said that it is derived from the Yadokari, which appears as a human deadline in the Ryukyu creation myth, and means people who are against the law, like grass reduction. 12 minutes left until the bus departs . I walk a little to see the indoor work. This is the interior. I follow the guide to the entrance. A work by Keisuke Tanaka. Utopia Dungeon. Ah, Tale of Time. This work is characterized by a large human straddling a pillar . In fact, it has been a vine story since the 2019 2022 art festival. It depicts a story of people who have been cut out of nature and walked the path as fragments or fragments, and then escape to the whole after one act of the story . It is a work that makes you feel a very deep message and makes you think. I was looking at the beautiful scenery, but there were only 2 minutes left . I jog to see the work. This is New Party by Eriko Yano. This work presents the idea that not being able to do something is a negative way of thinking, but rather that you can do something else . We, the interveners, can enjoy the lines, characters, and maneuverable elements from various perspectives. The rain has gotten much stronger, so today I will return to Takamatsu from Ikeda School. We arrived at Takamatsu Port from Ikeda Port in about an hour. Since we have time, we will go back to the hotel after looking at the official Seto Game goods in the terminal beer at Takamatsu Port . The main visual this time was also very cute, and the official goods such as badges, stickers, and T-shirts seemed to be very popular. This time I bought a T-shirt and a badge. I also recommend the fragrance that was added to the official goods from Seto Game this time. Good morning. It’s the second day on the island. Yesterday it was icy, but today it’s forecast to be sunny, so it looks like we’ll be able to enjoy the outdoor works. Today I’m going to see the works on the east side of Tsuchishima, so I’m taking the ferry to Ikeda Port. I used this unlimited ride ticket again this time. I haven’t had breakfast yet, so I’m going to eat at the shop inside. As expected, you can enjoy this many types of udon on a Kagawa Prefecture ferry. Today I had Tsukime Udon. The udon had a firm texture and was very delicious. The price is also quite reasonable at 470 yen, so I recommend having breakfast here. I also drank it all up because of the gentle flavor. It was a feast. After filling up and enjoying the view outside, Sid Island came into view in no time . The weather has improved considerably compared to before we left. We have arrived at Ikeda School. We will start from here today. The weather is good today, so I will dive by bicycle. I used the shared bicycle Hello Cycling at Ikeda School. There are 25 ports in Higashinai, so you can drop it off at any time. The fee is 200 yen for 15 minutes, and it is kept to 2000 yen for 12 hours . First, we head to Kusakabe Port. It is an 8km one-way ride , but since it is an electric bicycle, it was no problem. Above all, it is a luxury experience to ride along the sea, and it is over in no time. We arrived at Kusakabe Port. We looked at the sea on the way, but we arrived in about 40 minutes. We immediately went to see the work near the port. This is Inner Light, a work by Kido Risuke. The shapes of cells and virus anxiety are carved into the wooden wire used by the Setouchi Association as Hebune, creating countless voids. The voids symbolize the circulation of the stopped air and light while losing the physical semantic structure and function of Ebune, and regaining breathing again. We arrived at the Nishio no Sato area, 2km from the port. The gallery was born when French photographer Georges Rousse was invited to a small house in Nishio Village . Georges Rousse is known for creating works in buildings scheduled for demolition . Usually, his installations disappear along with the production site, but this one is exceptionally left as is. This gallery has a special exhibition that is unlike any other in the world. I came to a small cafe attached to the gallery. In addition to drinks, they also sold light meals such as burgers and hot dogs as part of a lunch set. I ordered a Kinki iced coffee to blow away the fatigue of the bicycle. Wow, it was delicious. The coffee was a treat. After cooling down at the cafe, I took a bicycle for about 25 minutes to reach the Sakate area . Welcoming us on the Sakate bus is Kenji Yanobe’s work Star Anger. It spins like a mirror ball. The creatures on top of it are said to represent the anger of the earth being destroyed by civilization. There seems to be a work at the Sakate Terminal Sakate Terrace, so I’ll go in. Inside, there was an illustration that looked like a work. It seems that the work is on the roof. There it is. This is Journey of Ships Cat. This cat is a series created as a guardian deity of travel to carry clothes, and is made to look like it is about to jump onto a ship from this roof. In fact, there is also a work on the Jumbo Ferry that connects Kobe and Gyakute, and if you are lucky, you can see both at the same time . It seems that there is also a work by Kenji Yabe a little further up the hill, so I will go there. We arrived. This is Beat Shrine. In fact, this work is a collaboration with Beat Takeshi. The Hanger from the Bottom expresses anger towards the environment and has been peeking out from the past. It is about 8m high, so it is quite impressive when you see it up close . It looks pretty scary to see this at night. We head to the work at the 20-Shino Hitomi Movie Village, about 6km from Sakate. No, I’m getting tired. He has run about 15km. While running along the coastline, I found a cafe with a great atmosphere. I will take a short break here. The owner of this place is a very nice person, and he said I could go down to the terrace and play while he was making it, so I was able to relax a little. I ordered a crepe and a hoganic jasmine tea. My fatigue disappeared. It was a feast. From the cafe, we headed to the 20 Shishi no Hitomi Movie Village, about 2km away. This area is all along the coastline, so I really recommend going by bicycle. We arrived. This is the Niju Shishi no Hitomi Movie Village in the Taura area. This is a bollard by Shimizushita, located right next to the movie village . It is an object with a motif of a pillar to lightly move a huge ship. It is a work that blends with the surrounding scenery, connects and stops people’s consciousness, and inspires imagination about the sea . It seems to be popular as a photo spot because of its unique presence . I’ve been on the road for quite a while, but I’m back in the Ukyo no Sato area. I’ve been riding almost 8km on the road almost in silence. It’s already almost 30km. It’s hard. Finally I can see the blue flag. By the way, you can’t park your car near this work. Here it is. Be careful because there were people who were having trouble on the slow road. There seems to be a parking lot nearby. This is an olive pompadour by Shimizu Hikuhi, the same artist who made the Ai bollard at the movie village. It’s a cute piece that looks like the head of a person with a pompadour. The face is shaped like an olive, a specialty of Kojima, and it stands in an olive field. By the way, the olive harvest season is from October to November. Small flowers were blooming now . About 13km from Nishio no Sato. It’s a long way to Fukuda Port by bicycle, so I took a local bus on the southbound Fukuda line. I didn’t buy an unlimited pass today, so I paid with my SUica. It was 300 yen. I arrived at the Fukuda school area after about 30 minutes by bus. The work is about a 5-minute walk from the bus stop, so I walked along the signs. I arrived. It seems that this is the venue. This is the Setouchi Asia Gallery, and it seems that artists from all over Asia are gathering in the former Soeda Elementary School area. I’m looking forward to seeing what kind of works there are. I’ll go in right away. I was given a floor map at the entrance . It seems that there are works on the second floor. There are also many illustrations in the hallway . If you look closely, there is a story that matches the place, which is cute. After going up the stairs, there is the Asia Gallery. It seems that artists from six countries are participating in this project . There are many art pieces on display here that visualize the invisible dynamics of the art of thinking that is being lost in modernized Asia . This art, which uses old clothes collected from local people, is colorful and unique, and can be enjoyed as a whole or individually. There were many works that evoke things that have been forgotten in Asia, such as works that use various materials such as eagle and banana fibers as a sustainable expression method , a ha-ga work created by an art group of about 10 people who share a DIY spirit, and a work wearing traditional Javanese male clothing . There are also works behind the elementary school gymnasium, so I went to see them. This is Suita Pavilion, a work by Nishizawa Ryu. The latter half of the two curved panels is used as a place for worshippers to sit and rest, and as a play area for children. It feels a little narrow when adults go inside, but it’s a space that feels like a secret base and is somehow relaxing. After seeing the works, I came to Mori Terrace, a cafe inside the school. The menu is like this . The main dishes are drinks and snacks such as scones and bread. The gym next door has Fukuda Asia Restaurant, so it looks like you can eat quite well. I ordered coffee and scones. Today’s Kojima-shimekuri coffee and scones were a real treat . It was a feast. Thank you for watching. For the next Setouchi Triennale, I will be going to an island where pumpkins watch over the sea, where art from all over the world gather. The ferry to Naoshima leaves at 8:12. Naoshima is the face of the Setouchi Triennale for the 10th year . Even on weekdays, it’s really crowded because today is Saturday. I got on the ferry. As expected, the seats inside were full and I couldn’t sit, so I came to the deck. But if the weather is good, I definitely recommend the enemy. You can see the whole Setouchi Kai. Today’s weather is sunny. The temperature is about 23°, so it feels a bit cold in the shade. It takes about 50 minutes from Takamatsu to arrive at Naoshima Miyanoura Port. I can see the red pumpkins of Naoshima right away. I’m going to the Benesse Art Site by bus, but I’ll have to wait about 10 minutes, so I’ll take a look at the art at the port. This welcome board is one of the works, and it has illustrations of the characteristics of Naoshima. I’m heading towards Kusa-san’s red pumpkin, which I saw from the ferry earlier. This is a very popular spot, so it’s always crowded and it’s hard to take pictures, but after the ferry arrived, it was pretty empty. You can go inside this red pumpkin, and the view from there is also very nice , so I took some pictures with my film camera today. From Miyanoura Port, I took a bus to the area around Benesse House. The fare was 300 yen . It seems that transportation IC cards cannot be used, so I paid by touch payment with cash credit . I arrived. I went to see the Leefan Museum, which is across from the bus stop. The Liu Fan Museum is built by Tao Ando and displays Leifer’s paintings and sculptures . Tao Ando’s architecture is highlighted by the beauty of the exposed concrete and the light and shadow created by natural light . The numerous works from the 1970s to the present that are placed in this building give a sense of calm and dynamism in the space with nature. Looking at them up close, you will be captivated by their size and fusion with nature. On the other side of the museum, you can see the works and the Setouchi Association. If you stand directly under this large arch, you can take a very striking photo with the Setouchi Association in the background. Look at this crystal clear Setouchi Association. On a fine day like today, you can see a beautiful view all the way to Takamatsu. While walking along the beach, I found some kind of white square object on the cliff. What is it ? Next, we head to the Penesse House Museum, about 600m from the Liu Fan Museum . This path through the forest and surrounded by the sound of waves is also a time that is typical of Naoshima. The museum is at the top of this hill . We arrived at the Benesse House Museum. The museum is based on the concept of natural architecture art and is located on a hill overlooking the Setouchi Kai. We will enter immediately. If you have a passport, you can enter for free. The museum was designed by Ando Tao. This is a museum where you can feel the art and space where the nature that shines into the concrete walls changes the expression of the work over time. The Benesse House Museum exhibits works by domestic and international artists in collaboration with the landscape and architecture. There are also site-specific works created by artists for the place. This is my favorite work this time. This weed-like work that everyone seems to pass by. It is actually fake and made of wood . When I went outside, there was a series of works that were exhibited on the beach of the Liu Fan Museum. It seems that the photo is observing the deterioration of the material in an outdoor environment. There is another work up the slope after leaving the Benesse House Museum, so I will walk there. But even so, the Setouchi Kai can be seen many times while touring the art in the best weather. This building is by Sugimoto Hishira Toki no Umi. I wanted to go see it, but I gave up this time because it was booked. There were also some colorful and cute works lined up outside the gallery. Beyond these colorful works lies the main purpose. There it is. It’s Kusayu’s yellow pumpkin. Do you remember it? In fact, this work was washed out to sea and damaged by Typhoon No. 9 on the 9th . The yellow pumpkin disappeared from Naoshima for about a year, but was reinstated in October 2022 and returned here again. I was not able to see it at the last art festival, so I was very happy to see the long-awaited work. We arrived in the Motomura district. In the Motomura district, there is a project called the House Project, which collects old houses that have become autumn houses and allows artists to turn the space itself into a work of art. It started in 1998 and seven houses are open to the public. Reservations are generally not required for intervention, but reservations or organization rights are required for some facilities. Video recording of the works in the House Project was not allowed, so I will give a brief introduction. The Korasy space created by dentist Shinro Otake, who boldly transformed a building that was once a dentist’s office, gives a sense of freedom and energy in the midst of chaos. The other work was by Tatsuo Miyajima. Water and counting numbers are spread throughout the building. This work reminds us that the way we inhale time is different for each person. We thoroughly enjoyed the two hours at the Art House Project. We visited all five works without needing to make a reservation . I was getting thirsty, so I headed to a coffee shop in the Motomura district. We arrived. These are sweets and coffees right in front of the Water work in Motomura. The menu looks like this. The coffee was an espresso-based drink made with an espresso machine . They also sold light meals such as scones and banana bread. It seems that the coffee is also sold at its own price. It was hot, so I ordered an iced American . The coffee was deep-brewed and very delicious. It was a feast. As I was walking with a coffee in hand, I saw some kind of work. This is the Naoshiko Terminal, which looks like a waiting room at the port. This building is made up of 13 4m spheres stacked on top of each other, and is translucent, and soft light shines in when you go inside. It seems to be lit up at night, so I’m curious about the night view. The bus arrived just in time, so I decided to go back to Miyanoura Lake. The fare was 300 yen . It took about 10 minutes to arrive at Miyanoura Port. Next, I went to see the artworks walking from Miyanoura Lake Port . The Naoshima Pavilion is a work located very close to the port. This work is based on the concept of the 28th island of Naoshima Town, which consists of 27 islands. The shape is made up of about 250 triangles . This shape may seem strange at first glance, but it is said to be inspired by the floating island phenomenon, where distant islands and ships appear to be floating . When you actually go inside, you feel like you are floating a little away from the ground. The next work is located a little further from Miyanoura towards the residential area. We have arrived. Loveyu is an art facility created by Shinro Otake where you can actually take a bath. This facility requires a bed. I wasn’t able to see the interior this time, but even just looking at the exterior walls reflects Shinro Otake’s worldview. There are many New York goods for sale at this facility, which were very cute. I bought a face as a souvenir for myself . I am heading to the last work in the Miyanoura area. It is about a 5-minute walk from Ilove Yu . We have arrived. This is the Setouchi Gallery. This is an interactive gallery that was renovated from a former pachinko parlor and serves as a bridge between the local area and visitors. Here, Shimomoto Motoyuki is exhibiting a project themed on the history, culture, and traditions of the region. Each exhibition has a different theme, and research is expressed with local residents and external collaborators. We have returned to Miyanoura School . From now on, we will take a ferry to Umino Port in Okayama Prefecture. We will try the ferry that departs at 4:02 . We have set sail. It is not the last ferry from Naoshima to Umino Port, so it is quite empty. By the way, this time it is also a route that is eligible for unlimited rides. Naoshima and Umino Port are quite accessible and arrive in about 20 minutes . So in no time, Umino Port is in sight. We have arrived at. We will look at art in about an hour from now . If we can’t challenge the 5:30 express line, we won’t be able to return to Takamatsu. We have to hurry. First, we will go to see the works at the station, which is about a 5-minute walk from Umino Port . About a 5-minute walk. I found the first work . This piece was created by welding iron rods to an abandoned bicycle, evolving it into a work of art . It can only be rented by teenagers per day. U Station itself is also a work of art. The black lines on the white surface give off a feeling of illusion. There is also another work in Jiho, a five-minute walk from the station . This is a new work by Mahmadmakh from this season. It is a sound installation work that makes use of the site that was once a battlefield. When you enter, you will find yourself in a space where you can feel the weight of the battlefield. Mist periodically drifts into the tiled bathroom, and light shines in through the window, creating a fantastic atmosphere. This work deeply moves visitors in a space where the past and present, the individual and the space work together. We are back near the port. This work is also a new work. You can see the work in the background. This is the work The Home by Boo Jihyun. It expresses the feeling of moving from one place to another through the movement of light, space, and time . This work seems to be lit up at night , so I would like to see that someday. But it might be amazing. We continue towards the coast. The next work is also a new one. This is the work I was most interested in in the U area. It is a work by Kanauchi Te. It is Uno. As you can see, this work creates the illusion that various things are popping out of the space of the Setouchi Kai. It was an interesting work that gives a completely different impression depending on the angle and distance from which you look at it. I see. U area. The last work today is Uno Chinu. It is a large-scale art piece that uses lungwood collected in this area. I felt a complicated feeling that garbage was used as art. I will return to Takamatsu via Kojima. From this issue, Kojima is only accessible by high-speed line, so I purchased a ticket for 1,260 yen. I will challenge Takamatsu from Shijima using the unlimited ferry pass for these three days. It took about an hour of high-speed battle to arrive at Kojimadono Shoko. There is still a little time before the ferry to Takamatsu, so I would like to take a look at the artworks near the port . It is the first gift of the sun to greet you at the port. This work is in the shape of an olive crown. Looking closely, you can see messages to the sea sent by about 100 elementary school students on the island. As I was reading the messages, the ferry to Takamatsu arrived . It takes about an hour to return to Takamatsu from here. We arrived. It is already pitch black. I was able to explore Naoshima and Kou Port, and I am very satisfied with today. I will take a rest at the hotel today in preparation for tomorrow. Good night. Thank you for watching. The next Setouchi Triennale will be a wonderful exhibition that utilizes the spring limited abandoned work, Seijima and Utsushima . Good morning. It is the third day of Setouchi Ge. Today my parents took me by car to Ikushima . Ikushima Mishima, which I plan to visit today, was originally an isolated island, but it was reclaimed due to development and became a mainland. So it is an island that can be accessed without using a boat. This is a map of Ikushima. It is exhibited in five places, including an abandoned school. Since they are scattered in the front area of the tower , it will be quite difficult to tour just the tower. There is also an art festival shuttle bus, so it is recommended to tour while keeping an eye on the time. By the way, the work of Hoshijima in the Setouchi area that we will be touring today can only be seen at Haru Station. It is currently over. We can now head to the first work in the Kitaura area. You can see Setoashi in the background. The first work is a white sculpture of a girl standing on a breakwater, next by Tomo Yasui. This work is the figure of a person standing in a certain place, and it affects our senses. It was also created with the concept that something invisible is there. We head to the former Ao Elementary School, which is about a 10-minute walk away. On Google Maps, it says 850m. By the way, there was a toilet. There are no convenience stores on the island, so it was helpful. After passing through the residential area, we saw the elementary school in the distance. We arrived. It is the former elementary school. The work on Ikushima is one work for the entire area called Ikushima Project Se. Toru Nakazaki, an artist who directed this island project, said that when he saw the strange chimera-like scenery of the industrial area and the island scenery side by side, and the sunset illuminating the Great Seto Bridge and the factory army, he thought that there was nothing unnecessary. 16 artists are exhibiting works in this political demon unit. First, let’s look at the elementary school work. It seems that there is a work in each classroom. This work is the Domi area where Tetsuro Kano’s base is located. At first glance, the things lined up here seem to be familiar things that can be found anywhere, but the artist Kano is asking us whether the scenery that we take for granted is really like that. For example, when viewed from a bird’s perspective, what about the distance between the islands, the way the wind flows, and the size of the visible things? This work allows you to imagine the feelings of others and look at things that you would not normally pay attention to in a new way . Now that I’m an adult, looking at the school that was once a place of learning from a different perspective makes the classroom that I feel nostalgic for seem like an unfamiliar place. It’s a work with a very deep message. However, the good thing about school works is that your heart is absorbed in the nostalgic scenery. After seeing the first floor, we went to the gallery on the second floor. There is an A word on the stairs. The gallery has a nostalgic feel to it because the things used before the school closed are still there. In this work, experimental equipment left in the science room of the old Ao Elementary School are reconstructed, photographed , and the shooting set is also exhibited, making it an installation work that explores the relationship between nature and the human gaze . In this special classroom, there is a work that uses the natural eye to depict the weeds around us . If you look closely, you can see the details as if everything is out of focus . This is because the iPad is the frame, so if you look closely, it looks like it is moving. I wonder if it is a video work? After seeing the work of the old elementary school, we head to the next gallery. It is about 1 km from the elementary school, about 15 minutes walk. We have arrived at the old Western Garden. We go inside right away. It seems that there are works in all the classrooms in the circle. Say Chains by Toru Nakazaki. It is Bind. This is not just a pun with a dedicated chain. A political island that was connected to the mainland of Shikoku by large-scale landfilling more than 40 years ago and died as an island. Based on the words and memories heard from people connected to the island, about 40 novels and works are connected like a story, and it was a thoughtful work that allowed me to imagine the background of that era. And above all, I wanted to say the dedicated chains over and over again. This is really addictive. The adult school is about a minute’s walk from the Western chains . There is a parking lot, so those who come by car can park here and go around. As I approached the junior high school, I heard some lively voices. This is a tea shop. I’m a little curious, so I’ll go there. They offered us matcha tea and sweets for free. Thank you. It was local children who delivered the tea to our house. They also gave me this wonderful message. Please take a look at this political front. Thank you. Thank you. I was very soothed by the sight of them carrying it so hard and the message. The tea was also very beautiful. It was a feast. Wow. It was a huge amount. It was a very nice space where you can feel the warmth of the local people. From here, we will go to see the junior high school’s works. The entrance to the works is on the left side of the blue flag when looking from the front. Go through the reception to see the works inside. It seems that there are only these works on the first floor. First, let’s look at Megumi Fukuda’s work. This work is an installation using waste generated in daily life and sunlight, and was born from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident in 2011. The lighting and equipment are powered by the energy from sunlight obtained by solar panels, and the work changes depending on the sun of the day and time. It questions the nature of the energy we consume unconsciously in our daily lives and the meaning of living with nature. This work is a work that looks at the lost memories and time by continuing to plant ever-lasting plants in the garden of the grandfather who was a victim of the atomic bomb . It is a work like a gentle prayer that makes you think about the meaning of people, time, and life by the ever-lasting increase . Having finished the exhibition on the first floor, we head to the exhibition on the second floor. This installation encourages viewers to look at new perspectives on the theme of diverse ways of being, such as shapes with names, shapes without names, shapes with names but not there, shapes without names but there, things that have names and shapes but are not there, and things that have names and shapes but are still there. Among the works is an orange object that was made into a giant sculpture from a defective PB bullet that he found by chance, and an enlarged version of a small work made by his own child . It was an exhibition that drew me into a unique worldview, including a lonely cart that could not be mixed with other carts . An opportunity to understand 1000 yen bills as 100 yen coins. A work that creates the illusion that part of the weight is being sold for 1000 yen . I’ll try it for myself. Oh, it’s not much different. It’s not different. The last work of the Kyusei Junior High School I head to the rooftop gallery. It’s the one I was most interested in among Seishima’s works. And since I have hardly ever been to the rooftop until now, I’m excited in a double sense. I arrived on the rooftop. The school is the tallest building in the area, so the view was extremely beautiful. I immediately went to look for the work. Hayakawa Yuta’s work is something that exists. His works incorporate the characteristics of materials such as clay and plaster that are not usually noticed, such as gravity, air, and the surface force of water , and express them as sculptures and installations. This work also focuses on things and verifications that are often overlooked in everyday life, and is an installation that develops the shapes that are emphasized through them on the upper floors . There are also. This rounded object was very cute. Now that I’ve seen all the works from the junior high school, I’m going to have lunch. This time, I’ll have some local gourmet food, the island food that was served at school. The island is known for its culture and cuisine, which was once known for its large portions. There were many menu items, but since today is Sunday, I left right after they sold out. I managed to get a red snapper burger just in time. It was freshly fried. It cost 1000 yen. I also got some fried octopus. I was impressed by the deep flavor of the octopus. Both the burger and the octopus were really delicious. It was a feast. I went to see the works in the Ura area using the Hello Cycling at the school. It’s 1.3km to the Takeura work. It’s not impossible to walk, but I decided to go by bicycle because there are ups and downs. There is also an art bus right in front of the building, so if you time it right, it might be better to take the bus. By the way, private businesses are not allowed to enter the Takeura area. It’s about a 10 minute bike ride. I’ve reached the edge of Takeura. It seems like there’s a work here. It’s a work by Kyotaro Tomada. It’s a girl fighting with the star of Africa. This work is an installation that combines a sculpture of the mother of the Republic of Mali and the head of a girl who is shining. A foreign element that has no direct relation to the island where it is exhibited has been inserted, and viewers have commented that it looks like a Kannon statue praying for the peace of the sea. Masashima is a combination of local memories, landscapes, and modern art. It was my first time here, but it was a really great island. I’m heading from Ikushima to Shamishima by bicycle. It’s cloudy today, but the temperature isn’t too high, so it’s very pleasant to travel by bicycle. It took about 30 minutes to arrive at Shamishima. I’ll introduce my bicycle to Hello Cycling Spot. It was 400 yen for 30 minutes. There are four works on Shamishima. Today I’m going to see two of them. There is one work just past the park ahead. This is Tanja Preminger’s marine layer. This work is made only from processed grass and grass, which is often produced in Kagawa, and is 6.5 meters tall. This work, which has been in operation since 2013, exists as a playground for local children and changes its appearance with the seasons. If you climb to the top, you can get a panoramic view of the Seto Ohashi Bridge. I’m heading to the Seto Ohashi Memorial Park to see the second work. It seems to be next to the Seto Ohashi Memorial Museum. Oh, is that it? I found it. This is a work by Shudo Fujimoto called “8-person seater.” This work, which is based on a chair motif, has a unique structure with nine legs for an eight-person seat. You can actually sit on it and enjoy the view of the Seto Ohashi Bridge and the Seto Inland Sea. The gentle sea breeze and scenery helped me to relax and spend a relaxing time . The only two works in the Seto Bridge area were the event and the work on the 5-type platform . The platform is a little far from here, so I’m heading back to Takamatsu for today. First, I headed to Sakaide Station by bus. The Art Festival bus was there, but it had just left, so I guess it would cost 600 yen to take the Art Festival bus. This time I took the C bus. There was a bus leaving at 3:24. The fare was 300 yen. Cashless payment was not available. It took about 20 minutes to arrive at Sakaide Station. I changed to the train and returned to Takamatsu. It took about 30 minutes to arrive at Takamatsu Station from Sakaide Station. Since I came back quite early, I decided to take a look at the newly built fragrant prefectural arena from above. This is the rooftop plaza of the Sunport Hall . You can see the whole thing from above, and you can also see the Setouchi Association, so it’s a really recommended spot. Thank you for watching. The next Setouchi Triennale will be on Ogishima, an art paradise hidden in the back alleys where cats welcome you. I boarded the first bus 15 minutes before the start of the challenge. It looks small at first glance, but you can also take a car or bicycle . It seems to have a capacity of 280 people. We departed safely at exactly 8 o’clock. A ferry from Sho is chasing us from behind. It’s the same ferry, but the large ferry is fast. We went offshore in no time . Today’s weather is cloudy with occasional sunny spells. The current temperature is about 15°. It takes about 40 minutes to arrive at Ogishima Island from Takamatsu Port. By the way, about 70% of the people got off at the right island. This is a map of Ogishima Island. The area is 1.34 km2. It is a small island with a population of about 160 people. It is also known as the Fisherman’s Island , and octopus dishes seem to be the most popular. When you land on the island, the first thing you see is the ferry waiting area. Of course, it is one of the works. There was also a Seto Game Information desk at the ferry waiting area. I got a pamphlet there. The Seto Game works on Ogishima Island start at 9:30, so I’ll look at the works that can be played at the time first. I’m heading to the story work while enjoying the scenery with the stone walls of Ogishima Island. If you go in the direction of the road, you can get food. It took about 15 minutes to walk from the port and the work came into view. Do you know where it is? You can see it when you get close. This work matches the scenery with the islands on the opposite shore. This work, standing on the beach, is a walking ark made to resemble Noah’s Ark. Noah’s Ark is a story that appears in the Genesis era of the Old Testament. God rises up on the earth, where humans were full of violence and evil, and decides to create aqua regia and make things better. Meanwhile, God commands Noah, the only righteous person living in this situation, to build a huge ship and put his family and all the male and female animals on it . After that, a great flood occurs and everything on the earth sinks, but Noah and his friends are saved on the ship. The water subsides, the ship lands on the top of the mountain, and Noah and his friends start a new world from there. God vows to never destroy humanity again, and makes a rainbow in the sky as a sign of this. The story of escaping from the evil and carrying hope to the future is felt, and it gives a quiet impression to the viewer. There is a work on the way back to the port. It is still before 9:30, but they say we can go in because we are ready, so we go to see the work inside. This season’s new work by Emily 5 is Our Island. This work, themed on Ogi Island, uses the island’s traditional ‘Kurumabushi’ (carriage), ‘Shibori’ (paper sash), recycled clothing, and many other lovely fabrics . In fact, all of the materials were collected from the residents of Ogi Island. The artist, who was attracted by the island’s population of 160 , created this work as a project involving all the residents. This work is shaped like Ogi Island. It was a very impressive work whether seen up close or from a distance. There was a sound field, which is essential in daily life on Ogi Island. Next, we head to an art piece that utilizes a Komi house near the fishing village. It is a drawing by Goro Murayama. The entire Komi house, which is 90 years old, is used as a canvas, and there are works on the first and second floors. The rules of self-automation, which are used in computer science information theory, were created by hand . This wall drawing work is a work that turns the process of autonomously generating patterns into an artwork itself . From here, the road becomes typical of Ogi Island. It is narrow and the roads are divided like a maze . As I was walking while looking at the stylish murals, I found a shop called Kuwatohon. I wonder if it is a bookstore? Underneath it, they were selling rice balls. There are three types: miso, sake salt paste, and mentaiko. I was just a little hungry, so it was a relief. I had a hard time deciding, but I chose the sake salt paste. It was 250 yen. By the way, this mural is also one of the works. The island’s scenery and silhouettes of plants are painted in bright primary colors on wooden boards made from waste materials and wiring collected on the island. They are attached to the sea wall of the table . We go further in. There are Seto Game signboards everywhere so you don’t get lost, so you can rest assured. When we climbed up to the middle of Ogi Island, the sea came into view. You can also see the Meo in the background. The next work seems to be exhibited at Comica here . Let’s go in right away. Matsui Erina’s work Dreams of the Future Me. Matsui Erina is a contemporary artist who develops her own worldview centered on Sen. She combines the essence of fictional creatures, girls’ manga, and classical art with her self-portraits to create a kind of parallel world. This time, we will create a future face that no one has ever seen before by superimposing self-portraits drawn by elementary and junior high school students on the theme of future Kojima people. Acting school. The next work is located just past this Dream Cafe. Burgers and drinks were sold at this cafe. The inside of this Komi house is the work. This is Dreamland, a work by Takeshi Kawashima and Dream Friends. This work was first exhibited at the Setouchi Triennale in 2022, but it was renewed this year. The author, Kawashima, is 96 years old this year, and the representative author of the work, who is based on the theme of liberation from the curse that Japan has had since the war, is three-dimensionalized in this Komi house. No matter where you look, it is colorful and you can feel as if you have entered a painting. We are heading to see the next work. Ogishima has many slopes and narrow roads, so it is recommended to come in comfortable shoes . It’s nice to give it to you. It was warm here. I was walking with my cat and before I knew it, I was following him. If you listen carefully, you can hear some kind of sound. The work is behind this curtain . What’s that sound? Maybe some of you have seen it before? This work is by Akinori Matsumoto, who also appeared at the Kitatarps International Art Festival. On the first floor of a private house, shadows illuminated by soft light move slowly. Then, when you go up twice, you can see the true nature of the sound. Using the power of motors, gravity, and wind, bamboo instruments play light sounds in a complex interlocking manner. This is a work that relaxes not only the ears but also the eyes and mind , allowing everyone watching this autumnalium to spend a quiet and relaxed time . When you are surrounded by this gentle sound, you forget the passage of time and end up relaxing too much . Please take your time and enjoy the feeling of being surrounded by the sound . The next work is set in this Komika, which is a short climb from Akinori. This Kominka is also said to be over 100 years old in the area. Let’s go in right away. This work is a room inside Oscar Oiwa’s room. When you enter the room, you will see a Japanese-style room on the roof that has been rotated 90 degrees . This room, which is like a soul , has an even stronger sense of otherness when people are reflected in it . Also, in the back, there is a painting of the Meongo and a large octopus crossing the sea, with the theme of Setouchi . I also saw this mural project by Bushi near the rice ball shop in the morning. I found it here too. I found three in this maze-like residential area. We arrived at the next work. It is a work by Oscar Oiwa and a building by Panshigeru just below Toyotamahime Shrine. It is a building made of kan, Panshigeru’s representative building material. The building is built on a hill, so the large landscape of the Setouchi Kai is directly in the background. There is also a sturdy chair made of paper inside, which you can actually sit on. There are drawings by Oscar Oiwa on three large glass windows inside the building . The sea creatures drawn by Pendeo on the glass, such as octopuses, fish, and ships, overlap with the actual seascape, expressing a world of pictures that goes beyond the window frame. It is also surprising that the windows open from time to time and the pictures overlap to become one large work. I would like to see it someday. I have seen all the works in the residential area. Now I will return to the port. I’m going to see the artwork near the port . Then, I thought, I didn’t go to the cafe today, so I’ll go to Damte Introduction. It’s a cafe and bakery that is open from 8:30 to 17:00. I have some time before the ferry to Ushima arrives, so I’ll relax for a while. The menu looks like this. In addition to coffee and soft drinks, they also sell craft beer. They also have sandwiches and baked goods such as local cheesecakes. Takeout is also available. There is no eat-in area, so you eat and drink on the terrace next to the shop . It’s covered, so you won’t get wet even if it rains. This time, coffee was 500 yen, of course. You can make it by hand. And the cheesecake I ate when I got here was really creamy and delicious. It was a feast. There are still about 20 minutes until the challenge time, so I’ll go see the artwork around the port. First up is Team Men’s Takotsu Ball. This piece is a playground for children living here on Ogijima. It’s right near the port, so even children can spend time here without having to wait for the ferry. This piece, which is based on the motif of octopus used in traditional octopus making, is a work filled with manliness, with the adults of the island praying for the growth of their children. Absolutely cute. Next is this piece, which also appeared at the beginning of the video, Soul of Ogi Island by Jaume Plensa. This piece, which is the first thing you see after getting off the ferry , has been installed since the first Setouchi Triennale and is a place of remembrance for residents and visitors. The shell-like roof is decorated with various cultural characters, including Japanese, Arabic, and Hebrew. You can enjoy watching the keys and reflections of these characters change depending on the time of day . It’s about time to board the ferry to the right island, so I headed to the ferry terminal. This pointy, round shape is very charming. I got on the ferry. Perhaps because of the time, the seats inside and outside were empty. The weather was nice, so I sat outside. I was able to see all 14 works. This is my fourth time at the Setouchi Triennale in Ogishima. That’s why I was able to get through it quickly in less than three hours. The people and cats are kind, and it’s a small island that makes you think it’s worth visiting again and again. If I have time in the summer, I’d like to buy an oyster-only passport and go around again. Thank you for watching. For the next Setouchi Triennale, we will be going to Ujima, a modern art site quietly hiding on the island where demons live. It takes about 20 minutes to reach the island from Ogishima. The ticket to Ujima was 240 yen one way. Here is a map of the island. It has an area of about 2.6 people km. It is a small island with a population of about 125 people. The works on Ujima are concentrated near the port, so it is very easy to get around, but the cave works are on top of the mountain, so it is recommended to go by bus. Let’s start our art tour right away. The current time is 1:24. The last bus from Kijima to Takamatsu Port is at 5:20, so we have about 4 hours left to stay. Kishijima is also known as Onigashima, and there are several works with demon motifs. There are also demon statues all over the island, and in the direction where the demon is stabbing his finger, there is a large cave where the demons used to be based. Let’s go see the works right away. We decided to tour the islands starting from the east side. It had been three years since we last visited Ujima, and I was feeling excited as I walked along feeling nostalgic, and before I knew it, we had arrived. It was about a five-minute walk from the port, and we arrived at the first piece. This is the site of this new work. Tsun’s plan to increase the population of Ujima by artificially increasing the island’s population, Anaguma, is currently looking for residents. We went inside and found a small apartment building. Looking closely, some of the buildings were occupied, while others were empty. Looking at each one, we found various things living there, such as roadside blocks, erasers that looked familiar, and the Meon, which connects Takamatsu, Ujima, and Ogijima . Anaguma is an ideal religion that the author created in his childhood, and the things that live here are the things that the author encountered during his stay on the island . There are small picture books in the residents’ rooms, and since they are all things that are familiar to us, we feel attached to each story. There was also an area with stone colons further back. Looking around, there were many stone colons. It was a cute piece in which each one was aware of their own face and shape, and seemed to be having a lively conversation with each other. The next work is located very close to the previous one. It is a work by Oda Motohiko called “Fusoya”. A kobo is a weapon of Jupiter in the field of defense, and is like a hawk carried by demons. When you enter, there is a large statue holding a magnificent kobo. The face is made of polished copper and is a demon’s realm, and the reflected light makes a pattern appear on the wall. You can also see sticks of various shapes and sticks in the process of being made, and it seems that you can actually purchase them. This is a work that can only be found on Ujima Island. Next, we went to see a work by world-renowned artist Leandre Erlich, who is not an exaggeration to say that he fell in love with contemporary art when he first participated in the Setouchi International Festival. We have arrived. There is a work in a house quietly standing in a quiet residential area. A work by Leandre Erlich . The presence of unrefined materials. It is something that cannot be seen. If you listen carefully, you can hear a crunching sound among the gravel that is spread out . Can you get it? If you look closely, you can see people’s footprints following. Even though there is no one there , you can sense someone’s presence through footprints and footsteps. Another work is this teahouse. It is a double teahouse of the presence of absence. There is a mysterious mechanism in this space as well . It looks like there is a large mirror in the teahouse, but there is actually no mirror on one side . That’s right. There is another teahouse in the back . It is made to look like a room that is exactly the same as the electric room and is tilted slightly so that it looks like a room that is transferred to the mirrors placed in it . This work is drawn to contemporary art at the moment when even your own existence becomes unclear, guided by the mirrors and structural mechanisms, and at the moment when you feel the presence of someone who should not be there . It is one of the works that I would like everyone to come and experience. The next work is located in the same village as the presence of the absence. It is said that it takes about 2 minutes to walk there. Yes. I can see the work. This work was born from Setouchi Triennale 2016. It utilizes an unused warehouse. It is a work by Yoda Yoichirou. It is an installation decorated with red paint and murals in the style of an old movie theater on 42nd Street in New York. The chairs are from a historic New York movie theater, and the walls are decorated with images of Chaplin and There are small statues of Hollywood stars. As it is a mini theater, movies are also shown. Chaplin and Flix Jatt were shown. The next work is a part of the elementary school that has been in operation since 2005 because there are no elementary school students. There are several art works in this elementary school. The first work is in the courtyard on the left side as you enter. It is a work by Shinro Otake. Otake’s work, which starts from this colorful entrance, is an installation work that boldly combines the island’s nature and man-made objects. This entrance leads us to another world of art while still retaining the gratitude of the former school . When you go through the courtyard, you will see man-made objects like satellites mixed among delicious plants . It is a symbolic structure in which palm trees grown on the island are planted in a huge unpopular part drifting in the sea and life sprouts . It is said that the title Mekong contains the hope that the work will live and take root. The next work is on display in the pool to the right of the entrance. As you go through the school buildings, you will see a sign. This is Jacob Dahlgren’s interpretation of color and structure. This work was created by collecting things that are no longer in use from the local people . What the collected things have in common is that they are square, and they are made up of books, video cassettes, plastic containers, and other things that have the same shape but different colors. By combining various colors, sizes, and materials, a space like a small town is created . When you look closely, you can see things that are somehow nostalgic and still in use, and when you look from afar, you can see a colorful small town. This work can be enjoyed from any angle. We left the village and came out onto the seashore. You can see the Setouchi Association in the background. We have arrived at the next work. This Komika is the gallery. This is the navigation room for Nicola Dalo’s work. Nicola Dalo is an artist from France who has previously participated in the Echigo Triennale, or Triennale International Art Festival . This work is designed to allow you to experience the flow of the swaying cutlet, the movement of the celestial bodies linked to the music box roots, and the Setouchi Association seen from the window of the room. By walking around the exhibition and observing the movements of celestial bodies, you can experience the gap between the scale of humans and the natural world. We came out to the coastline. The Setouchi Kai is so beautiful. It’s calming. The Meo has just set sail for the small island. It’s now 2:30. We have about 3 hours left. We’re walking along the coastline toward the port. In the summer, this beach is full of beachgoers. The next work is on the seashore. We arrived. This is the Small Shop Project Ushima Meitengai. This is a small shop project on the island that started in 2019 with a seaside mood. It’s like a small complex with shopping, laundry, cafes, and more, as well as viewing the works. This is the third time this project has been held, and I’m really looking forward to it as a new yoga class has been added and the high-end works have been updated. The first work is Nakazato’s yoga class. After checking in on the first floor, you will be guided to the second floor. A large window at the front of the room overlooks the sea and the shrine on the opposite shore, and glass is slowly rolling by the window. As it is a yoga class, there are also large mirrors on both sides, and when you pull the blank installed in the center, the bicycle wheels installed on top start to move in tandem, and the bells start to ring and play a melody. This sound and view may indeed be the best place for yoga and meditation. Next is the work next to the classroom. Shibata’s work, “The Sound of Life’s Song of Heaven.” Do you know what this work is made of? In fact, it’s all paper. Ayumi Shibata is a killer artist who creates works that combine paper and light, and her works create a world that is not only flat but also like a three-dimensional sculpture. The paper is used as a shadow, and the delicate light that leaks out from it creates a fantastic space. This work itself does not have a sound mechanism , but the sound of Franco’s bells heard from the work next door and the light of the work mix together, creating a relaxing space that makes you take a deep breath . In contrast, this work is a custom-made Sunset Taylor Memories by Hara . This work is a participatory art piece in a shop where pictures of clothes with memories are drawn upon request . Inside the shop , there are rows of clothes filled with memories of various people. This is a blue knit. The tag says when and what kind of memory it is. There was also a booth where you could submit your memories, so please submit yours too. After seeing the works on the second floor, I went to see the works on the first floor. It was originally a guesthouse, but on the first floor, there is a courtyard that makes you think it was a really nice inn . First of all, this work. It is a coin laundry that is open from 9:00 to 4:30 . It is a very popular laundry even on weekdays. I’m sure many of you will think this, but it is also a work of art. It is a unique video work called Laundry by Leandro Erlich . Leandro Erlich’s consistent theme is to blur the boundaries of what we think of as everyday life . Next to it is a washing machine that you can actually use, expressing a qualifying paradox that makes you wonder what reality is . Can you really believe in everyday life? It was a strange experience that made me ask myself that question. The next work is Express Bookstore-chan, which was released this year by The Cabin Company, a picture book writer and art unit. In a room that exudes the colors of a picture book, The Cabin Company has disassembled and fused the books and memory pages from the library of Me Elementary School, which they are displaying as small palm books, and reconstructed them as objects. And in this room, a girl stands out, her name is Meko-chan. She gives a sense of the possibility of life sprouting sparsely through art. The next work is this one in the courtyard. There are four unusual types of table tennis tables lined up. This work is an experiential installation called Ping Pong C by Hara Taro and Hara. Of course, you can play and there are rules for Ping Pong C, so make sure to call them and join in. Ball rackets cost 100 yen per person. You can borrow them at the reception. This table tennis table is an air-hole style table tennis table with air coming out from underneath. It is one of this year’s new works. At the last Setouchi Triennale, a heated match was held here, and we were late for the departure time to Ogi Island. This is the reception shop located right next to Ping Pong C. They also sold original goods from the island and stickers that said “Tsun-san’s Anamachi is looking for tenants”. We were able to see the artwork. We decided to take a break from table tennis this time because we were both tired from touring the art. We decided to return to the port for about 2 hours until the ferry to Takamatsu. We had more time than we thought until the return ferry, so we decided to go to the Onigashima Cave. Two companies run buses to the cave, but we took this one. On the way to the cave, the bus was playing an introduction to the island. Look at the stone wall. This is to protect the island from the strong winds of the Ote, which is called Ishioto, a unique type of rock fall. Inside the Ote , it’s like a Marube road, so why not take a stroll around when you come back ? We took the bus for about 10 minutes to the top of the mountain. It seems there is a cave ahead. However, we decided to head to the observation deck that overlooks the island instead of the cave. We climbed up the slight slope with a little effort. We arrived at the observation deck. Look at this magnificent view of the calm Setar and the islands. You can also see the other side of the right island, which you could n’t see unless you climbed up this far . I enjoyed the view of the right island right up until the time when the bus back down was just about to arrive. I returned to the port. I bought a ticket for the return ferry, so I went to look at the artworks at the port while waiting for the ferry to arrive. A work by Kimura Takahito. This is the Kamome parking lot. This artwork was visible from the moment we arrived at Gi Port. It is said that there are nearly 300 stories waiting to greet us. The Meon arrived at 5:22 late. It departed from the right bank island about 5 minutes late. This marks the end of our tour of the art at Setouchi International Art 10 Years Old Station. During the two-day art tour, I was able to visit a total of six islands, including Toshima, Naoshima, Seijima, Ushima, Ogikijima, and Mishima. Every island I visited this time was worth visiting and the art was wonderful. So I really recommend all of the islands. Summer starts on August 1st. I definitely want to visit the islands I haven’t visited yet and the newly opened Naoshima Art Museum on Naoshima. Thank you for watching. The next Setouchi International Art Festival will be a world-class art museum that will shake your senses. This channel provides information on contemporary art museums around the world.
